But whereas yesterday's scene was located in ; the East Valley area of the most prominent Mandeloid of the ; parent, today's scene lies near the tip of its main stem. The ; scene is not on the stem, but very near it. ; ; This variety of image has been seen many times before, which ; kept me from rating it above a 6, but it really is a rather ; pleasant and harmless image, well worth the 10-1/2 minutes ; required to render it. ; ; Of course, 10 minutes is 1/144 of a day, and some fractalists ; may need every moment of their busy days. These busy ones may ; save time by downloading the finished image from the FOTD web ; site at: ; ; ; ; Before the move, I did not realize that finding good fractals, ; like being a star athlete, requires constant practice. I still ; seem unable to settle smoothly back into the fractal groove I ; was in before the move. I am out of fractal shape, that much is ; certain, but things are slowly starting to improve. ; ; The weather here at New Fractal Central on Thursday was much ; improved. A high temperature of 79F 26C, sunny skies with puffy ; white clouds, and low humidity made conditions ideal for the ; fractal cats both old and new. In a week or so, we might let ; the new duo venture onto the enclosed porch at the back of the ; second floor of New Fractal Central. Right now, all they are ; allowed to do is gaze wistfully from the windows. The next FOTD ; will appear in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and fractals ; are the best cure-all ever invented.
